Overview
- Tottenham drew 1-1 at home to Sunderland, with Ben Davies scoring before Brian Brobbey equalised on 80 minutes, and home fans booed at full-time as Spurs stayed 13th.
- Supporter unrest has escalated after a second straight jeered result, coming days after a 0-0 at Brentford where travelling fans chanted “boring, boring Tottenham.”
- Thomas Frank defended selling Brennan Johnson to Crystal Palace for £35 million, saying some decisions cannot be delayed and may make more sense over time.
- Mohammed Kudus was forced off in the 19th minute with a left leg injury, further exposing Tottenham’s limited attacking depth after Johnson’s departure.
- Frank said the club is “alert” to January opportunities to strengthen, acknowledged fan frustration, and has previously admitted the current spell has been hard to enjoy.
